Chapter 91 - Military Affairs Department

Translator: TeamTWO

Editor: Levs

After finally seeing Ge Hongliang and his group arrive, Ouyang Shuo led the officials to welcome them, saying, "Welcome Ge Hongliang. From now on, we are family."

Ge Hongliang didn't dare to neglect him and bowed, saying respectfully, "Thank you sire!" This bow pledged one's allegiance. Ever since then, they would be treated differently as leader and servant and they won't be able to talk like they were of the same level. Everyone who followed behind bowed down; the normal residents even kneeled and said loudly, "We greet the lord!"

Ouyang Shuo naturally understood the deep meaning behind it and accepted their greetings. He went forward and helped Ge Hongliang up, smiling. "Let's go, I've asked my men to prepare wine to welcome all of you." After saying that, he personally led Ge Hongliang towards the Lord's Manor.

Shanhai Town was undergoing a rebuilding, and everywhere there were construction sites. Ge Hongliang paid attention along the way, seeing that the layout of the town was logical and the positions of the buildings were aligned.  On the way, he saw the residents in clean clothes and looking very fresh and energized. This could only be seen from people who lived a sufficient and well off life.

Ge Hongliang couldn't help but nod. It seems like the promises from yesterday weren't too far fetched and Shanhai Town was as prosperous as he had mentioned.

In the banquet hall of the lord's manor, Ouyang Shuo organised a feast to welcome Ge Hongliang, Xu Zhenchang and Sun Tengjiao. The 3 directors and the military representative General s.h.i.+ were there too. As for the other refugees, Ouyang Shuo placed them under the care of the Material Reserves Department.

Before beginning the banquet, Ouyang Shuo introduced everyone to one another. From this day onwards they would be working together, and this was a great time to get to know one another. This people from Shanhai Town were all big brother figures. Apart from Yingyu, they were famous people in history, hence they would naturally take care of the newcomers.

The 3 of them were different, getting shocks and surprises one after another. They couldn't imagine that a grade 2 town could gather so many talents. The little pride that they had before they came here had been erased.

When Sun Tengjiao saw General s.h.i.+, he couldn't muster up any fighting spirit. When he saw Lin Yi and the other people around Ouyang Shuo, he thought that they were the strongest generals in Shanhai Town. Little did he know that they hid a special rank general.

After the feast, Ouyang Shuo didn't rush to give them duties and let them rest.

2 PM in the afternoon, meeting room of the Lord's Manor.

The 3 directors, 14 Secretaries, 1 organization president, and all of the captains and above personnel were gathered for the meeting.

Ouyang Shuo said, "This time I called all of you here to adjust the organisational structure. As our military increases, there are more and more things that concern it. From logistical support, weapons and equipment design, soldier management and posting, tactics design etc. Hence I feel that there is a need to establish a department that focuses on military matters."

As military affairs were on the opposite wing as government affairs, Ouyang Shuo had always been trying to find a suitable manager to take up organisational control. Now with Ge Hongliang, this was the perfect opportunity.

"I've decided to establish the Military Affairs Department, and its president will be Ge Hongliang.  The Military Intelligence Division and Armoury Division are under it. Apart from that, the Resource Division and Combat Logistics Division are also under their charge."

The establishment of the Military Affairs Department resulted in big changes in the Administration Department and the Material Reserves Department. That was why he invited everyone from the 3 departments to this meeting. From today onward, the 3 departments of Shanhai Town would become 4, and Ge Hongliang had become one of Shanhai Town's four dragons.

Ge Hong Liang got up excitedly, saying loudly, "Thank you sire for your trust, I will not let you down!" To throw such a chance to a new person showed the absolute trust in him, making him feel touched.

Xu Zhengchang and Sun Tengjiao, seeing that their leader was placed in such an important position, their last shred of worry disappeared. They started to really a.s.similate and think that they were a part of Shanhai Town.

Ouyang Shuo held a principle of trusting people and not doubting them. He believed that with his ability, Ge Hongliang would be able to manage the Military Affairs Department and share some of his worry. The divisions under the Military Affairs Department weren't complete, and Ouyang Shuo did not want to rush it and build it straight away. Hence he decided to let it grow and wait for a time before making such changes.

Establis.h.i.+ng the Military Affairs Department solved the mess and chaos in the Military Intelligence Division. The old division could be said to work independently, but it was also under the leaders.h.i.+p of General s.h.i.+, as a sort of reserve unit, not having a suitable allocation. The Armoury Division took up the responsibility of building weapons and equipment, and thus this issue was settled.

Zhao Youfang from the Combat Logistics Division was demoted to vice secretary because of his bad performance at the year-end a.s.sessment. He had already been reinstated as secretary and now that his division had been moved under the Military Affairs Department, the start of military independence had begun.

As the Combat Logistics Division went away, the position of the Material Resource Department dropped once again. However this was something that was inevitable, as the department was setted up to solve the problems that came with privatization. Now that privatization was progressing well, most of the functions of the department weren't able to keep up with the speed of progress and needed to be released.

The office of the Military Affairs Department was already arranged by Ouyang Shuo. "To be built at Northeast Military District, a four-in-one base for all four divisions that are under the military affairs department will be needed."

"No problem!" Zhao Dew.a.n.g nodded and said.

This arrangement was firstly because the Lord's Manor didn't have anymore working s.p.a.ce and secondly, be it for the armory division or the barracks, they were all at the military district so housing the department there would be more convenient.

After the reorganisation of the Military Affairs Department, Ouyang Shuo turned to look at Yingyu and smiled, "Yu'er, I found a talent for your department but I don't know if it's easy to enter your department?"

"Big brother don't tease me like this, others don't know but you should know how busy I am. To have someone to split the load is what I desperately want."

Ouyang Shuo nodded and announced, "I've decided to appoint Xu Zhengchang as the deputy director of the Financial Department and also the secretary of the Business Division, at the same time taking away the position of secretary from Cui Yingyu."

Xu Zhenchang stood up and bowed, thanking excitedly, "Thank you sire for your trust, I won't let you down!"

Xu Zhenchang had loads of government affairs experience and would be of great help to the Financial Department. With his years of experience in different departments and divisions, it would be effortless for him to manage the business division. Ouyang Shuo also didn't want all of Cui Yingyu's effort and time to be spent on the Business Division and wanted her to control the big picture.

After arranging the territorial government structure, Ouyang Shuo kept all the military personnel to hold a military meeting. The people who joined apart from the captains from Shanhai Town, there was also the village protection squad captain from Qiushui village Zhang Daniu. Even Pei Donglai who was busy training in Beihai Town had brought Zhou Feng and Youfang to rush back. Youfang was an elite water bandit, so after being recommended by Pei Donglai, was promoted to the navy second squadron captain.

"Mr. Ge is not only our military affairs director but also our war advisor. The Spring a.s.sault is of utmost importance, Mr. Ge will arrange and command this. His orders are the same as my orders. You must help and follow his orders to the best of your abilities, do not slack." Ouyang Shuo said directly.

"We will follow your orders!" Ouyang Shuo's authority in the military was unchallenged as all the leaders were chosen and nurtured by him. Many of them held doubts but they still placed it aside and listened Ouyang Shuo's instructions.

Military planning and command wasn't Ouyang Shuo's strong suit. As a modern person, it was hard for one to have such knowledge, especially of cold weapon era warfare. He only learned a bit from books and movies, and was still on the learning and grasping stage. Hence, he gave off a little of the power to the more experienced Ge Hongliang to lead the Spring a.s.sault.

Following which, Ouyang Shuo introduced Sun Tengjiao to them, he would be in charge of the 3rd cavalry squadron formed up of 100 of the men from the refugee camp.

"How's the training of the troops going?" Ouyang Shuo followed on.

"To reply to sire, it is going smoothly. The mixed camp has already started on coordinated training between infantry and cavalry troops, we believe that they will be sharp and ready for battle soon. The mountain barbarians have also adapted to military life and are mixing well with the other soldiers." General s.h.i.+ replied.

"Very good. Apart from them, do not forget about the newly built 3rd cavalry squadron, we must help them to mix into the camp and get used to military discipline."

"Understood!"

"What about the village protection squad from Qiushui village?"

Zhang Daniu stood out and said loudly, "Sire dont worry, after the last mistake, we have trained even harder to win back our pride and honor. I can promise that the current village protection squadron is not weaker than any infantry squadron."

Ouyang Shuo nodded his head and turned to Pei Donglai, "What about the navy?"

Pei Donglai immediately stood up and replied, "Sire, after half a month of training, the two squadrons are completely in formation and can be thrown into battle."

Ouyang Shuo heaving a sigh of relief, he smiled. "That's good. Since it's like this, the Spring a.s.sault can be started soon. Director Ge!"

"Present!"

"I trouble you to use these two days to familiarize yourself with the various troops in each area, and create a detailed battle report for me in accordance with the scouting report from the Military Intelligence Division." Ouyang Shuo ordered.

"Don't worry sire. As for the arrangement of raiders near the border region, I already have some understanding, I promise to complete the mission." Ge Hongliang said confidently.

"Good, then I will await the good news." Ouyang Shuo said.

Chapter 92 - Provocation

Translator: TeamTWO

Editor: Jun

May 7

Di Chen once again came out strongly.

"System Notice: Congratulations Player Di Chen for being the first lord in China server to upgrade to grade 3 town, rewarded 1100 merit points!"

"System Notice: Congratulations player Di Chen for being the first lord in China to upgrade to grade 3 town…"

"System Notice: Congratulations…"

Handan Town took only half a month to upgrade from a grade 2 town to a grade 3 town, finally regaining the top spot in China and breaking Shanhai Town's dominance.

The outside world was in a flurry as slowly, the doubts towards Ouyang Shuo had started to spread. Many people feel that the Six Tyrants of Handan had a strong background and that the only reason why Ouyang Shuo took the lead was purely by luck. Now that Di Chen had shown his strength, Shanhai Town is nothing.

Such thoughts were certainly common as everywhere on the forums there were posts laughing and mocking Shanhai Town. Some were jeering while others felt it was pitiful and wasted, while most were there to stir up trouble.

"1st post: The tale of Shanhai Town has now been destroyed, Di Chen is the king of the Chinese server!"

"2nd post: The black horse has been washed white, the glory of Shanhai Town is no more!!!"

"3rd post: Starting from Shang Zhongyong, the discussion on the rise and fall of Qiyue Wuyi!"

"4th post: Shooting star has fallen, I pay respects to the past glory of Shanhai Town!"

"5th post: Two men competing, Di Chen takes the lead!"

"6th post: This proves that lord's mode is only for rich people, normal players will lose!"

"7th post: Who will be the next black horse, let us wait and see!"

"8th post: six tyrants of Handan had proved himself again, is there a chance for a reunion?"

……

Even the other members of the Handan alliance, Zhan Lang and Sha Pojun also came out to cheer on Di Chen, dissing Shanhai Town to strengthen the reputation of the Handan Alliance.

Expectedly, Ouyang Shuo did not lack supporters. Many players considered him as the representative player of commoner players and treated him as their role model. Siege Lion and Xunlong Dianxue, as well as other leaders, came out to cheer on Shanhai Town.

"1st post: We support Shanhai Town, I can't stand those clowns who get so arrogant when they have a small lead!!"

"2nd post: Good luck Qiyue Wuyi, we will always support you!"

"3rd post: Our flag-bearer won't die, our faith won't be destroyed, Shanhai Town stay in there!"

"4th post: Qiyue Wuyi, you are our pride, destroy Di Chen!"

"5th post: The legend continues, we support Shanhai Town, support Qiyue Wuyi!"

……

Supporters of both sides got into a war of words, shooting comments on one another, making it very lively.

At that moment, Di Chen suddenly announced through the global channel, "Qiyue Wuyi? Only a small fry!"

Originally, Ouyang Shuo didn't pay much attention to the war of words on the forum. Handan Town's fast upgrading speed was what he had expected. Seeing that he had so many supporters, he was also very touched. However, this time Di Chen was too arrogant, which was beyond what he could bear.

Facing Di Chen's provocation, Ouyang Shuo did not choose to hide and instead teased, "I'll let you be arrogant for a few days!"

This time, he had outright regarded Di Chen as an enemy, not having any chance of reconciliation. He did not expect that person would have rushed to achieve the short sighted goals. He invited large amounts of players into his territory which would definitely affect the future development of various productions in the territory.

One mustn't look at how great Di Chen looks like now, he would definitely face problems in the future. Probably not long after, not only will he not keep up with Ouyang Shuo, he would not even be the leader of the Six Tyrants of Handan.

Hence after shouting in the global announcement channel, Ouyang Shuo kept quiet.

He did not bother about the discussions in the outside world and patiently prepared for the spring offensive.

Ouyang Shuo not caring didn't mean that others would not too. The 2 current leaders' war of words brought this situation up to a new level and various powers were discussing how to deal with it.

        ……

Consonance Town meeting hall, the 4 flowers were gathered once again.

"Elder sister, what are your thoughts on Di Chen's provocation?" Zi Luolan asked.

"What can my thoughts be? The truth is apparent, Di Chen just wants to make himself look good to rebuild the reputation of the Handan Alliance and get back his position as leader of China." Bai Hua said.

"That's right, he wants to step on Qiyue Wuyi to climb upwards. It seems he had made good calculations and it seems to be quite successful. All the comments on the forums are dissing Shanhai Town. Although most are people he hired to support him, but we mustn't exclude the fact that many people who can't see the real situation might have the same thoughts." Tsing Yi added.

Zi Luolan was stunned, asking curiously, "4th sister's meaning is that you don't think his plan will work out?"

"Of course. Upgrading to a grade 3 town was only a small jump, as long as one used players to make up for the territory population you could upgrade easily. Only people like Di Chen would brag about it like clowns. The most important consideration would be from grade 3 town to grade 1 county. Based on the the tendencies of the system, it would definitely have some difficult task or requirements. Wasn't that how Shanhai Town had got their lead in the first place? Didn't you see Qiyue Wuyi's reply, he was obviously very calm." Tsing Yi explained, no wonder she was the smart one, being able to see the crux of the problem.

Bai Hua nodded, "4th sister is right. There's also one point, I don't know if you noticed?"

"What point?" They asked curiously.

"Qiyue Wuyi gave us the privatization method." Bai Hua said.

"Eldest sister's meaning is?"

"That's right!" Bai Hua nodded her head.

"Aiya, can you two stop doing mute riddles, what point??" Hong Ying, who couldn't understand anything, shouted.

"From that privatization strategy, it seems that he has a deep understanding of the game, and we can confirm that he was a beta player. Not only that, his partic.i.p.ation was also very high. I think Qiyue Wuyi probably understood the requirements needed to upgrade the town, which was why he could set such a plan with a set goal in mind. This was why he would be able to gain an una.s.sailable lead and get the t.i.tle of the first town." Bai Hua explained.

Luo Zilan's brain worked fast and had already reacted, saying with uncertainty, "Big Sister's meaning is that Qiyue Wuyi already knows the requirements to upgrade to a grade 1 county and that they are very difficult. Even with Di Chen's ability, he wouldn't be able to complete in a short time, which was why he was so fearless?"

"That's right!"

"But how is that possible?" Zi Luolan couldn't believe that information which someone with such a deep family background like Di Chen couldn't know, how would Qiyue Wuyi know?"

Bai Hua laughed, "Firstly this is only my guess. Secondly, the game is very mysterious, based on the personality of Gaia, for such things to happen is not rare at all."

"Talking about specifics, did you notice that out of all the people from Handan alliance cheering for Di Chen, there lacked one person?" Tsing Yi said.

"Feng Qiuhuang?"

"That's right! About this person, what does elder sister know?"

Bai Hua shook her head and laughed bitterly, "She did not join any game before so how would I know anything? What I know is only basic information revealed on the forums."

"Little sister do have some speculation." Tsing Yi smiled.

"Oh? Quickly, tell us!"

Tsing Yi nodded, "The people that Feng Qiuhuang is representing is a joint power. Any person in the alliance wouldn't be able to stand against Di Chen alone, hence they could only come together. This kind of team rests heavily on the leaders.h.i.+p ability of the leader. For Feng Qiuhuang to be able to stand out shows her ability. Her background was revealed on the forums and that she's was from one of the biggest families in the alliance the Feng family."

"The Feng family was a special family, the men were placed above the women. The men wouldn't need to join any family matters and just played all day while still holding the highest powers in the family. The females did all the work but in the end are the sacrifices for the family. The name Feng Qiuhuang is the best description for the Feng family."

"Little sister's conjecture is that as the brightest female member in a few hundred years, she didn't want to be the next puppet and sacrifice. What she wanted was a hidden ally that wasn't a member of the six tyrants of Handan, hence Qiyue Wuyi was the most suitable. Did you notice that during the siege of beasts when Shanhai Town became the first, that Feng Qiuhuang sent her congratulations. And this time when the Handan Alliance ganged up against Qiyue Wuyi, she did not partic.i.p.ate. From this we can tell that she isn't of one heart with the Handan Alliance and she wants to work and cooperate with Qiyue Wuyi."

Bai Hua took the lead to clap, praising, "No wonder you are our little Zhuge, with such small clues you can make such big conjectures and see the crux of the situation."

Tsing Yi felt a little embarra.s.sed, "This was just a guess, who knows if it is accurate."

"Ok all, no matter what, we must trust in our allies. As for other things, let's not care and just do well on our side!" Bai Hua concluded.
